Dress shopping-any last minute tips??

Saturday I am going shopping for my dress. Any last minute advice from anyone who has already done it is greatly appreciated!! Thanks

Good luck

Definately try everything on - all styles. More often then not, what you like in the mags is not what you like on you. After a while, you'll get an idea on which cuts and colors (white, ivory, rum pink) look good on you. I tried on at least 30 different gowns before deciding on mine (at 4 different stores).

They will have a slip for you and sample shoes if needed (not really nded though). Wear a strapless bra, stockings if possible & comfy clothes (cause you'll be getting in an out of them alot).

Be sure to ask about caps on alterations and bustles (reg and french).

Thanks all for the advice. I am going with my matron of honor - I am so looking forward to spending this day together too, as part of the whole experience. My MOH will be great, she has always been a supportive without being overbearing kind of person in my life and that seems like a great person with whom to go dress shopping. Also she is getting married 2 months before me so she just went through the dress shopping experience as well. You have all given some great ideas/advice so far and I will have a little checklist. I like to be prepared when it comes to large & important purchases :-)

If you have someone who you can trust to be honest and pushing their opinions on you, take them along. Besides, the dresses can be heavy and if the shop is more self-serve rather than providing help, you'll need someone!!!

Great idea! Their book was my bible throughout my wedding process - and I loved their analysis on the designers....so important.

Its important to find the dress you love - but even more important to know the co you're ordering it from is going to deliver a good product on schedule!

Good luck. They are fabulous!!!!!
